E File Issues Error Code 53

It says you only have 5 chances to E file return and it keeps saying it's not able to file right now and this is for a 2022 taxes, that was not filed. Unfortunately I believe it has now exceeded the 5 attempts.

Can anyone help as I have never encountered this.

E File Issues Error Code 53

The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA)’s NETFILE service is shut down for annual maintenance on February 1st and won't re-open until February 24, 2025. Please come back to file your return at that time.
